Welcome to SUDS, the premier conference designed to unite student union representatives from across Canada. Our mission is to provide a platform where students can share their experiences, ideas, and best practices for running successful, student-oriented organizations. Through this collaborative environment, delegates will gain valuable insights to enhance their respective student unions and develop tangible personal skills that benefit student government and professional pursuits.

​

SUDS is more than just a conference; it's a vibrant space where ideas and personalities converge. We take pride in our inclusive and non-partisan approach, welcoming attendees from all backgrounds, regardless of group or coalition membership. This is an excellent opportunity for you to expand your network and connect with bright and motivated individuals like yourself.

The UBC Alma Mater Society (AMS) plays a key role in improving and enhancing the learning experience for students at the University of British Columbia. By coordinating with other student unions nationwide, we share our experiences, challenges, and successes to create a more comprehensive and effective governance structure that better serves and represents our students.

​

SUDS focuses on bringing student executives from across the country together, offering workshops on topics relevant to student societies. Recently, our emphasis has been on lobbying, providing workshops on how to lobby effectively. This combination of workshops and networking ensures that student union executives gain practical skills and build strong connections with their peers.

Join us at SUDS to learn, share, and grow in a supportive and dynamic environment. Together, we can elevate student governance and create a lasting impact across our campuses.
